For as long as I can remember my mom had tattoos. I always thought they
were the coolest, and I knew I'd have some one day. Well, 2 days ago I
got tattoo #5. I also have an appt next week to finish up my tattoo I
have for my kids (it needs 2 stars added for Jackson and Justin!) and
for tattoo #6. I cannot wait!
When I was 16 and my mom passed away I finally got my first tattoo. It
is dedicated to my mom, and says "Mommy's Girl" It's on my stomach to
the side, and its been through 6 pregnancies and still looks the same.
Now that I've had other tattoos done, I see what crappy work it was, but
it's still dear to me regardless because of what it means.
I know some people think "omg, tattoos are for life! you shouldn't get
them!" but I love them anyways, and mine are all where they can be
covered if needed no problem.
I can honestly say, to this day 4 out of my 5 tattoos didn't hurt. The
one done just 2 days ago? WORST PAIN! It felt like burning, and deep,
deep, pain. But, I'm told it's because it was on the top of my foot and
it's a pretty sensitive area due to the thin skin! I'd agree.
I am impressed with how it turned out though. I love every single one of
my tattoos. Next week, #6 is an autograph of someone famous that
recently passed away. I've taken 6 months to think about it and I
decided I wanted to do it - It means a lot to me. I donate to this
persons charity monthly, I have for a long time, and I always thought
autograph tattoos were super cool.
